Abstract

This document defines an XML format for the representation of civiclocation. This format is designed for use with Presence InformationData Format Location Object (PIDF-LO) documents and replaces thecivic location format in RFC 4119. The format is based on the civicaddress definition in PIDF-LO, but adds several new elements based onthe civic types defined for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol(DHCP), and adds a hierarchy to address complex road identityschemes. The format also includes support for the xml:lang languagetag and restricts the types of elements where appropriate. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
